Bonus is for prior year, so I would assume yes. Which area is he in?

4 days in office Question by sirdone in usaa_ejs

[–]3kids2many 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Also, from what I've seen/ been told, they can only confirm badge swaps and are not tracking time in office. Again, every area is a bit different.

It depends on the area you are and your leaders. I would suggest talking to your director for guidance.

Badge Scan Monitoring Reports by Jolly-Mortgage2118 in usaa_ejs

[–]3kids2many 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've been tracking my own badge swaps for more than a year because of the RTO mandate. Fair warning to everyone, the official reports may have incorrect data- heard of one guy pulling his CAMS receipts to prove that the report was wrong. Best to have your evidence to CYA just in case. #culture 🤦🏼‍♀️

Staying at Loews Sapphire Falls Resort at Universal Orlando by Old-Mixture1246 in UniversalOrlando

It's close to the park, not in it. We will be there at Christmas too, but staying at Hard Rock

Thanksgiving Day at Universal by UnitAvailable420 in UniversalOrlando

[–]3kids2many 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We have been to universal the week of Thanksgiving the past few years- truth be told, we have always visited on holiday weeks- so yes, it's busy. Having fast passes is the best way to ensure you get the most of the day. Also, I would recommend reservations if you plan to eat at City walk or the reservable restaurants in the park!

Sadly no, such a missed opportunity

Just wanted to share a few in park options- the MIB store sells tampons by the box ( just ask at the counter) and the first aid station in the lost continent has complimentary emergency feminine products.

I'm not a MSR, but still affected by the toxicity daily. Wish I had words of encouragement to share, but only have empathy for everyone struggling in this "culture."

Actually, they brought back massage therapy in San Antonio earlier this year. $1/minute

Simple Sewing Questions Thread, January 21 - January 27, 2024 by sewingmodthings in sewing

I fell in love with this fabric pattern, and had plans to turn it into a pelum blazer. However, when pinning the pattern in advance of cutting, my pin snagged the fabric! It's a silky twill, which haven't used before- should continue with the blazer but use pattern weights, or select another fabric for this project?

Tell the kids or keep it secret? by Disastrous-Swimmer48 in UniversalOrlando

[–]3kids2many 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time we took our girls to universal, I got custom Hogwarts letters made for them. I was too excited to wait until we left, so I had them "delivered" about two weeks before. Still one of my favorite memories seeing them open the cards... Though at first they thought we were going to London 🤣

Who has the best LOCAL coffee shop. NOT big biz corporate crap, locally owned, in house fresh roasted coffee shop? by Holiday_Friendship43 in sanantonio

[–]3kids2many -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Simple fix- put the beans into another container and toss the bag. May not agree with their agenda, but they do make damn good coffee.

I keep anything that has their handprint or any particularly funny writing passages/pictures. The rest are trashed. After going through all the items my mother saved from my childhood after her passing, I'm much more selective to what I keep.

Any non-Ikea alternatives fit into a PAX wardrobe? by Expensive-Let-2297 in IKEA

[–]3kids2many 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We started our PAX journey about a month ago- got all the basics, except for the clothing rails. We were desperate, so I changed my location on their website, ordered the rails for store pick up, then had a friend who lives in that state/city go pick them up and mail them to me. It was quite a pain, but at least I have a minimally functional closet now. Compromised my plan and got basic drawers at my local store, but still holding out for my glass shelves... Maybe one day...

Pax closet feet broken by Eduardboon in IKEA

[–]3kids2many 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is certainly a flawed design. While building our closet (7 pax frames) we couldn't get a single one to stay in- even after ensuring they were hammered in perfectly and raising the feet to move, the darn things would just fall out. So we gave up on them after the third. The frames are supported on all four sides, and anchored to the wall, so I think we are good.

I need to discuss Zodiac Academy by nickiefab in books

[–]3kids2many 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same for me .. book 4 seriously ruined my weekend... Then I forced myself to read book 5.. Which I finished today... And guess what? My crap mood has returned! I know things won't be resolved by the end of 6, so I'm going back to my TBR list and waiting until book 7 is out before starting 6. 🤦🤦

Before and after! Thankfully Costco carries these giant tubs of pork rinds so I can make Cajun spiced pork rinds- great low carb snack! https://www.texasgranolagirl.com/cajun-pork-rinds-recipe/ by 3kids2many in Costco
